Comment on Differences between Common Lisp and Emacs Lisp by Antonio Querol https://yoo2080.wordpress.com/2013/08/16/differences-between-common-lisp-and-emacs-lisp/#comment-2593
Wed, 14 Nov 2018 12:28:04 +0000http://yoo2080.wordpress.com/?p=157#comment-2593Thanks for pointing this, I will also notice that Common Lisp, has complex numbers support and emacs lisp not

Comment on changing the number format for section headings in org-mode html export by schillingklaus https://yoo2080.wordpress.com/2013/08/24/changing-the-number-format-for-section-headings-in-org-mode-html-export/#comment-2089
Fri, 24 Nov 2017 08:49:00 +0000http://yoo2080.wordpress.com/?p=179#comment-2089This only changes the numbering in headlines; but I would also need to change the format of section numbers in cross references.

Comment on what to do when emacs hangs, freezes or crashes by chriswarbo https://yoo2080.wordpress.com/2013/10/03/what-to-do-when-emacs-hangs-freezes-or-crashes/#comment-1877
Fri, 07 Jul 2017 12:54:42 +0000http://yoo2080.wordpress.com/?p=215#comment-1877Very useful tips, although it doesn’t catch everything. In particular, Emacs hates long lines. For example if a program spits out a few MB of debug info, without line breaks, to its stdout/err, and it’s run in an Emacs shell buffer, then Emacs will eat up a few GB of RAM and churn at 100% CPU for hours as it tries to render the results (scanning for ANSI escape sequences, etc.). None of these methods (C-g, killing subprocesses, sending USR2) will help 😦

Comment on what to do when emacs hangs, freezes or crashes by Griper https://yoo2080.wordpress.com/2013/10/03/what-to-do-when-emacs-hangs-freezes-or-crashes/#comment-1729
Sun, 25 Dec 2016 07:14:29 +0000http://yoo2080.wordpress.com/?p=215#comment-1729Useless! I have Emacs on Win7 freezing when I do the “ielm” command, which I have traced to a Lisp call to “start-process”. The process it’s trying to start, a program called “hexl”, never starts. No errors happen, it just freezes solid, and debugging will be useless since the “start-process” function is written in C. All because I wanted to get something to indent properly!

Comment on Living with Emacs Lisp by Jisang Yoo https://yoo2080.wordpress.com/2013/08/07/living-with-emacs-lisp/#comment-1636
Mon, 19 Sep 2016 07:52:54 +0000http://yoo2080.wordpress.com/?p=137#comment-1636I’m glad you like it. There’s been no update for a long time because I have become busy with other things and I’ve been delaying any form of tinkering with Emacs. Maybe I should finish up unpublished drafts that I have saved up.

Having said that, I want to take this opportunity to say that my articles on elisp should be taken with a grain of salt because they are written by a Lisp beginner, and not just for. So those articles may need help from all feedback they can get and so y’all please feel free to comment on any part that may be misleading or confusing.
